Finally getting around to writing a review about this bra .
It's great to find an unlined bra in 34B. I originally bought a 32C as Aerie bras tend have stretchy bands, but this was not the case with this bra. The band is a true 34 and feels good and snug on the first set of hooks and the leotard back adds to the comfort of the fit. The cups fit well, though they could come up a little higher on the sides. The lace cup material is not very stretchy, and it has a half vertical seem, this combination provides good support and ...a natural shape, at least in my size range...can't speak to how it would be on larger/heavier breasts. The wires are medium stiffness and not an issue for comfort. The lace trim was a little scratchy but not a problem after the first washing. The straps are SHORT, very short actually, I have about 1" of adjustment left in them and I'm not tall. I like the light airiness of this bra which is great for the warm summer months, only downside is where the cup seem stops and makes a "dart"...right over my nipple and is highly visible under thin shirts, like permanent high beams. I originally thought that cup was too large so I added some padding to pull the material tighter but it didn't make a difference, that's just how it's designed.
My overall impressions of this bra are great, it's comfortable and cute and has held up well over the summer...and you can find them on sale for $10-$15. Read more 167 more words
I have tried this bra and the Demi from Aerie's Happy line. This bra is really comfortable but I prefer the Demi version - I feel like this one is a small fit for the size. I also find the straps are not super practical (I wear a lot of spaghetti strap tank tops)
It's still a comfortable bra, but not my most favourite.
So far have only tried this on briefly, but I really like it. Aerie advertises this bra as having the comfort of a bralette, but with more structure. I definitely agree with that statement! This bra is very comfortable and I didn't want to take it off. Really glad they started selling these in DDD!
My only negative about this bra is I get some slight, slight quadding. So if you are very full on top this may not be the bra for you. I do find it runs slightly small in the cup as well but that is not a huge deal for me
This bra was altered from a previous user. The alteration was genus and it fits great. The lace is very thick and sturdy, and a tad pit rough, especially around my armpits when i start sweating.
I have always read comments about how comfortable the Sunnie bras are at Aerie, but unfortunately for me, Sunnie had only come in the full coverage style and full coverage has never fit my shallow breasts very well. I was so excited to see that Aerie had recently come out with some new Sunnie bras but in the demi style. I did not hesitate to make a purchase. I ordered it in solid navy and I have to say that this is the most comfortable bra I have ever owned. You don't even realize that you have it on. The straps are fully adjustable (unlike the Aerie Hannah ...bras that I own) and partially separates into 2 about 2/3 the length of the entire strap (but this does not affect adjusting the strap). It also covers all of my breast tissue. Of course, when I first tried it on, the band was really tight. I had considered exchanging it for a 32B, but decided to keep it for a while in hopes that with a couple of wears it would stretch to a comfortable fit, and it did just that. I plan to purchase a few more in different colors.
Update: After wearing this bra for a while, the band did stretch to a comfortable fit but the cup doesn't come in enough (there is a gap) to enclose my breasts. My breasts are too shallow to fit this bra. So no, I will not be purchasing more in different colors. Read more 144 more words
This bra is really uncomfortable. The seams cut into me, the tags itch, the underwire bruises the sides of my ribs, it doesn't breathe. I still wear it occasionally and it is not too uncomfortable for the first 2-3 hours I wear it. 30D - Aerie » Katie Lightly Lined (4441-7167).
I like this bra a lot. It is very comfortable, currently my most comfortable bra. It is called a push up but it really does not feel or look any different than my lightly lined bras, but that is possibly because I wear it so much. It is the 30D - Aerie » Bridget Vintage Lace Pushup Bra (9732-3140).
This bra really pushes you boobs together since the underwire doesnt scoop in the middle, but rather meets in a vertical line. Sometimes the skin under my boobs will fold together, which seems extreme. Also, the racerback makes my boobs look fantastic, but my shoulders can't deal with that stress, as the support comes totally from the straps, and not the band at all. The band also is tighter on top and bottom, so there are some bulges on the side if wearing tight clothes.
I love this bra, and own probably 8-10 of them in various colors. I've gained a little weight since I bought them all, and they were probably always a little looser in the band than they should have been on me, but the cups fit me perfectly at the time. They're silky and seamless, lightly lined with a soft pad that hasn't wrinkled through numerous washings, and well-shaped for someone with a more sloping breast shape. The center gore is low and wide at the base, which is a great fit for my "splayed" breast type. The wings and back are double-layered microfiber satin with enclosed elastic - very smooth and comfortable. The closure panel has a very soft backing and is tagless. The slender straps are great with tanks and camis, although not the absolute best for comfort/support. I think now if I had this style in a 32DD, it would once again be my daily go-to bra.
A few years ago at the end of our summer traveling I noticed something in the photos we'd brought back. In many of the photos I'm wearing strapless shirts, or spaghetti strap shirts, and I look like I've tied some sort of sling to the bottom part of my boobs and tried to stretch it over them, unsuccessfully. In some of the photos I'm certain I'm wearing a strapless bra, and if I recall correctly, it was size 32B. The strapless bras I wear now are size 32D, but just a few years ago, trying to find a 32 band (at all) with a cup larger ...than B was virtually impossible. I included one of the photos that was acceptable, but still shows the depth of my ignorance about what bras are supposed to do! So now I wear 32D bras that are strapless, have firm, no-slide bands, and allow my breast tissue to enter the actual cups of the bra. In the photo I've shared, I can't even tell where the cups wound up...but I'm sure they are pulling my tissue down down down. Aerie's Summer Multi-way Bra ensures that I will never have another experience like having 4 distinct breasts on my chest, plus two mini boobs in my armpits. Thank you Aerie for not stopping at B cups!!!! Read more 118 more words
I liked how this fit a lot, but the cups were too tall for me and dug into my tail of spence - this seems to be a trend for me for Aerie racerbacks, and was a problem with this one because of embroidery on it. I'm going to try this model on a non racerback and I think it will fit great for me.
Not a 1-00% perfect fit, but a great fit for being on a budget and needing to replace all of my bras. This and the Blakely are my favourite from Aerie in this size range
This was an alright bra for me. At times the side wires dug into my ribcage and it was a bit painful, but it wasn't an all day thing. Otheriwse it was comfortable and fit well.
The fit on this one is not as good as Blakely, for me, but is still acceptable - the cups aren't too wide to the point that they're uncomfortable, and the material the bra is made out if is so soft and comfy.
I've recently been resized and Aerie was one of the first places I tried to find new bras due to price and availability where I am. This is my favourite of all of the styles they have available in my size - I'm short and short waisted, and the cups are narrow enough that nothing digs in anywhere it shouldn't.
My only negative comment is the shape is a little pointier than I would like, but I can definitely live with that
This is a good cheap strapless option (when on sale). Its a bit small, shallow, and wide for me but overall not the worst fit (and all strapless are shallow and wide). Since aerie offers free shipping and returns I recommend giving this a shot of you need a strapless and fit the size range!
Soft like a fluffy, cozy blanket. Extremely comfortable. Padded cups similar to swimsuit cups, really help with "lift", but don't add bulk. Too lacy to wear under tight shirts without looking bumpy, but perfect under "yoga" type shirts and sweatshirts.
Ouch! congratulations and thank you Aerie too!
